Stem, by Karman Ludwig: In a society in which S.T.E.M. (science, technology, engineering, and mathematics) is held in the highest regard, a group of young students put on a production of Henrik Ibsen’s “A Doll’s House.”

Monster, by Reagan Shull: A surreal film that chronicles the transition from young to old. As we grow up, our experiences, circumstances, and even the people we meet along the way mold us into the people we become. In some cases, that can be a monster.

Blue Sky Laboratory, by Anthony Wright: This documentary film tells the story of Tito Vasquez, an enthusiastic inventor and entrepreneur who proves that anyone truly passionate in what they do can make a difference, no matter if they are rich or poor.

Reclaiming the landscape: Urban Agriculture in Toledo, by Glenn & Steven Boatman, is a documentary film about Thomas Jackson and the work he is doing to bring fresh food to people living in the urban communities, despite opposition from some city leaders.

Maumee Film Festival 2017

AWARDS

Unfortunately, not every film receives an award. While the awards are very much a part of the festival, art is subjective and there are no fixed, steadfast rules that come with naming award recipients. Volunteers staff this event with one main goal: To celebrate creativity and visual arts and to give as many filmmakers as possible the unique opportunity to showcase their work in the beautiful, historic Maumee Indoor Theater.
